Exception noted, but in general most college coaches are not going to be interested until the kid closes that gap.  And if that kid doesn’t have a contact who can get him to those select few  JuCo coaches willing to take on a project he isn’t likely going very far despite his potential.  

What about the opposite kids.  The kid sitting mid to upper 80’s on the mound who pulls down 79.  Do you think he has a higher or lower ceiling on the mound than the 95 mph pull down kid throwing 82 from the mound?

Agree that many schools don’t want a project that they have to develop. They want polished kids that they can plug into the lineup. But there are a few places that will take a raw kid w/ potential and develop him. Not many but there are some. I have never seen a kid throw harder off the mound than from a crow hop in the OF. Can’t imagine that being the case with any player.
